Paragraph President Lyrics


Paragraph paralyzer, rhythmic aristocrat
Mister Rap, it's the gift of gab about to twist your caps
Swift the fist so fast, fury worry, hit the switch ya ass
It's an' bits an' fragments, so midget, quit this diss ya assSit ya ass down, while I rip the tracks an' spit the facts
Hit the grass, green, brown or purple, I'm the diplomat
Rip your raps, really, you don't get the math
Just to have grief, only rhymer, I was meant to rap into thatFire breathin', rhyme heathen, kidnap your mental black
Hijack your fly dap or con head your intellect
Mind state, arrow blast, center crack, mind gaps
Blind from their eyes back, send ya back cryin' act upPencil pad, my utensil, grab thine attention
Get hit so bad with Jiu Jitsu stabs, I abid you
An' if you rap, I'ma send you back rappin' in a tavern
If you mad, kid, it's just too badTell 'em it's the Paragraph President
An' it's official, you can hear the cheer coming up
Paragraph President
I want to thank you all for attending my inaugural ballParagraph President
As a special treat this evening
I have asked America's foremost young poet

To read his latest poem for usHit you with the funk, it's like, "Who cut the provolone?"
Government officials put taps on my mobile phones
Nations overthrown, hold my own on my zone
Prone to leave your dome blown, poem after poem, homesJones for the tones, roam with me, turn your motor on
Overall this war just just got it goin' on
Overgrown child, never growin' old, so when knows pokin' notes
'Til the never nose ho' overdoseOn my flows those flows goes deep
Hold your nose, bros knows foes, yo, don't sleep, slow your role
Show my soul, total hold, domination, don't ya know?
Under comet like Muhammad with the verbal robodomeIt's the Paragraph President
He's been sweeping the nation with a hard hitting campaign
Paragraph President
As a politician, he regards himself as a national harmonizerParagraph President
And so Mister President we urge you to do something
About the deplorable state of our nationI pledge allegiance to the pen an' the pad
An' the mic an' [Incomprehensible] of America
An' to the Republic, kiss my ass
An' thugs fakin', actin' hard to get this killer beef given to me
I busted for allLeave your city burnin' like Gomorrah
Stamina, blaze up your space, plus I got it on camera
An' I'm a animal animator, landin' a
Blow, cleanin' clocks, nothin' left for the janitorPunchin' through your granite, a goodwill ambassador
From another planet, I could kill an' smash ya up
An' it won't stop an' I can't stop, 'Predator'
Can erupt an' it does, had enough, amateur?A rammin', ya feel the goat's horns slammin' ya?
Ham it up, every single time that I stand in a
Crowd of emcees, backin' up, when I'm actin' up
On a frenzy, after ya yellin', "That's enough"An' it tempts me, that it does an' I'm glad it does
When I flip, see, spatula style's stackin' up
Many big threes rappers on, never catchin' up
Passin' up, ride passenger, is it black enough?Spectacular, now you know who's attackin' ya
Crackin' up, mashin' ya top mind capturerI'm the Paragraph President

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Gift Of Gab (Tim Parker) and Chief Xcel (Xavier Mosley) met at John F. Kennedy High School in 1987 in Sacramento, California and formed the group in the early 1990s. They released their first recording, "Swan Lake", on solesides records. The Solesides Crew consisted of the duo, as well as other friends of theirs they had met at University of California - Davis, including DJ Shadow, Lyrics Born and Lateef The Truth Speaker. The single was an underground hit, but label trouble prevented the duo from immediately capitalizing on their fame.

In late 1997, Solesides became quannum projects and in 1999 Blackalicious released the A2G EP, which served as a precursor to their debut full length album, Nia, which was released the following year. This was followed by a major label contract with MCA Records and the release of the critically acclaimed album Blazing Arrow in 2002.

In May 2004 Gift of Gab released his first solo album, 4th Dimensional Rocketships Going Up, but he assured fans that Blackalicious was alive and well.

A third full length, entitled The Craft, was released on Epitaph Records imprint ANTI- on September 27, 2005.
